In this conversation, Bishop Erik Varden explores the concept of contemplation, tracing its etymological roots back to the Latin word "templum." He explains that the original meaning of contemplation was linked to observing the flight patterns of birds as a form of divination, emphasizing the importance of stillness and focused observation. True contemplation therefore involves a deep, attentive engagement with the world around us, encouraging us to step away from screens and embrace the beauty of our surroundings. We also discuss how contemplation can be a life-giving practice, accessible to anyone, regardless of faith.
